Katalon Recorder LoadVars not working

Feedback & Reviews Bugs Report
1

I had been using Katalon Recorder to read data in each row from a CSV file using loadVars and then run a search on this data. But about three weeks ago, suddenly, loadVars was unable to read the data. I have not changed anything in the test case. When I run the test case, the website just does not seem to be doing anything. Please advise how I can get the loadVars to be working again. Thanks.

Hi @mseng, Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

  1. CSV File Format: Ensure your CSV file is correctly formatted. Sometimes, issues arise from extra spaces or incorrect delimiters.

  2. File Path: Double-check the file path you’re using in the loadVars command. Make sure it’s accurate and accessible from your test environment.

  3. Command Syntax: Verify that you’re using the correct syntax for the loadVars command. It should look something like this:

    loadVars | path/to/yourfile.csv |

  4. Katalon Recorder Version: Ensure you’re using the latest version of Katalon Recorder. Sometimes, bugs are fixed in newer releases.

  5. Permissions: Check if you have the necessary permissions to read the CSV file from the specified location.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, please provide more details about the errors or behavior you’re experiencing. That way, forum members can offer more specific advice.
